Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

"No, not really. I'm searching for the dragons." He says, heavily breathing.

 

"Well... come in. It's hard not to find a dragon here."

 

"This is why we don't bring mortals to meetings." Caelia says, putting her hand to her head and leaning on the table.

"We know she was mind controlled." Tenebrae states.

 

Ihra sighs.
"Okay, I'll say it. Tenebrae and Lux had a child, and Xlentia was forced to erase him."

 

"I know, I met some the other day. Siln, I believe was his name. And also the mother dragon with her whelps."

 

"What!?" Tenebrae exclaims.

"What!?" Lux exclaims.

"W-We had a child? A-And Xlentia e-erased them?" Tenebrae asks, sounding hurt.

"I knew she wasn't all goody two shoes." Lux says, angry.

"Oh you just had to bring it up." Praecantatia says, giving Temporus a withering look.

"It was going to happen eventually, it was just a matter of time." Temporus says, smirking.

"Your puns are stale and old, and I told you how sensitive this subject was!" Praecantatia shouts.

 

Ihra, confused, breaks into tears.

"Siln's out hunting."

 

"Ugh, see what you've done!?" Praecantatia says, annoyed.

Gaia changes to her smaller size, heading over to Ihra and giving her a hug.

 

"I see. Could you tell me what cave is his? I want to visit him."
He looks at the other caves as he says this.

 

Ihra hugs her back, shivering.
Sgavrinn heads towards Lux and Tenebrae, looking at them worriedly.

"One valley to the east, lowest row and five in on the right."

 

"Okay. I think I got that."
He looks at the dragon.
"Also, we need a place to rest for tonight. Could we maybe..?"

 

They're older, scales and claws larger than most. And grey...
"No. Ask Siln."

 

"It's ok, we're not going to do anything bad." Gaia says comfortingly.


"I-I...I can't believe she'd do something like that..." Tenebrae says, tears forming in her eyes.

"And we had no idea we'd had a child this entire time. I need to have words with that damn dragon." Lux says, angry.

 

Sgarinn nuzzles Tenebrae, whining.

Ihra pushes Gaia back, shaky.
"IT. WAS. NOT. HER. FAULT!!" Ihra screams, going back to crying afterwards.

 

"Okay."
He start heading east, towards Siln's cave.

 

Tenebrae lightly picks Sgavrinn up, stroking him.


Gaia looks shocked and hurt, stepping back a bit.

"I think this meeting is over." Lux says, getting up.

"This is your fault, you know." Praecantatia says, angry at Temporus.

"Oh ho ho, is it? Or is it Xlentia's? Excuse the 'bad pun', but it was only a matter of time until the news reached Tenebrae and Lux. I just sped up the process," Temporus says, "And, wasn't it you who didn't want to tell them? To keep it a secret?"

"Because stuff like this would happen!" Praecantatia shouts.

 

Anne hops off your back and leads you into his cave, still weary.

 

"Siln! Are you back yet?"
He walks inside the cave.

 

Ihra glares at Temporus, then at Praecantatia.
"Emerald will be hurt to know you two lied to her."
Another bout of sobbing.
"A-and Lux, I c-can't believe that I e-ever thought s-someone so like V-virei'tus would b-be so heartless!" She accuses, furious.


Praecantatia can notice Ihra's staff glowing, a paradoxical amount of magic on the edge of being released from the crystal.

Silence. I'd take that as a no.

"Guess we have to wait for him to return. But you could go to sleep if you'd like, Anne."
